So you've got lots of money, you've [[Daddy's Girl|got daddy wrapped around your finger]], and you're prettier than everyone you know. You've got all you need to assert your superiority and walk all over the little people in your midst, knowing that you're better than anyone else and if you get into real trouble, [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money|daddy's money]] will get you out of it, right?
Line 26:
She might become somewhat of an [[Uncle Pennybags|Aunt Pennybags]] when grown up. Also, if the '''Spoiled Sweet''' character loses her money and position, she'll be a [[Fallen Princess]].

* Sketcher's brought us the spokes-cartoon-girl for Twinkle Toes shoes.
== Anime
* Chiyo from ''[[Azumanga Daioh]]'' is insanely rich, with a huge estate. She's also a preteen genius, going to high school when she's ten. Still, she's as [[Cheerful Child|sweet and cute as they come]].
** More specifically, one of the main things keeping her away from [[Insufferable Genius]] territory is that both she and her classmates are fully aware that she's a ''ten-year-old'' in high school, and thus more than a bit naive about "mature" things, like sex and sexuality. (See the infamous "Drunk Nyamo" scene for reference.) Not to mention the physical limitations of being a ten-year-old, especially when it comes to phys. ed.
Line 98:
* [[Richie Rich (comics)|Richie Rich]] is so wealthy his family owns two of everything money can buy. Still a nice kid with a generous heart. His parents are pretty decent types as well.
** In the live-action movie, the antagonist finally manages to gain access to the Rich family vault, only to discover it's full of keepsakes whose value is almost entirely sentimental. Where do they keep the money? "In ''banks''."
== Fan Works ==
* The version of [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|Harmony Kendall]] native to [[The Teraverse]], a [[Former Child Star]], is this according to everyone who's ever worked with her. And judging from the Teraverse stories in which she appears, they're not wrong.
Line 182 ⟶ 186:
* Alexis [[Castle]] is this despite her father being a bestselling novelist who also often acts like a [[Man Child]]. This is also with a grandmother who is an overly dramatic former actress and a mother who is rather impulsive and irresponsible. It is arguable that she is actually the most mature member of her family.
* London Tipton from [[The Suite Life of Zack and Cody]] used to be this<ref>eg. feeding the hungry during Christmas</ref> when she was a little girl before her [[Freudian Excuse|father's constant disappointments]] caused her to grow into a [[Spoiled Brat]].
* Samantha Swift on ''[[Take Two]]'' is an entitled and rather bratty movie star with an [[Unusual Euphemism|overenthusiasm]] for sex and narcotics and stereotypical Hollywood vices that gets her in trouble with the law, and with public opinion. However her difficulties have so far mainly hurt herself and in the meantime she means well. She is paired off with a rough and tumble private eye to learn what it is to earn an honest dollar. Whatever her faults she is not a bully and has compassion for those less well-off than she is.
